Friday 13 October saw the first meeting of the Bracknell Forest Joint Climate Action Board, set up to accelerate collective action against climate change in the borough.
The first meeting, chaired by Cllr Mary Temperton, leader of the council and executive member for climate change, saw constructive discussion and initial outlining of plans to work collaboratively on climate changes issues.
Cllr Mary Temperton, said:
“As a result of our successful climate change summit earlier this year, we knew we needed something to bring local organisations together so we can start working as a community to reach net zero.
“The first Joint Climate Action Board represents a turning point in our efforts to make a change across the borough. We are all responsible for the future of our planet and together we can plan and share actions to reach our goals.”
Local organisations or residents are welcome to register their interest for the working groups by filling in a climate change participation survey.
